I thought last year's probably was tougher, but we couldn't get some of those teams this year. Our phone hasn't been ringing off the hook.

I thought we did pretty good for our first game. Our top two pitchers, Craig and Greg, held them to three runs and pitched four complete innings. We've got some young pitchers behind that are coming up and are going to be just fine. They just need some more time on the mound.

We had one fan who made action figures of all of us. Mine had a mirror, which I thought was a bit cheeky.

Out of his last three starts, this was his best performance. We've got to have him now through the playoffs.

Any time you're ranked that high, it puts a bull's eye on you. But recognition like that comes with having a good season, and I think our kids have handled it real well.

I'm not sure, but we had something like 130 points while St. X had around 120 and Trinity 105. It was a real good meet for us. I told the kids coming in I thought we had a chance to win it and we just had some excellent performances.
